Question:
Teuvo Company entered into two contracts on the same date with Rundblad Corporation. Teuvo has provided the following analysis of price and cost for the contracts:
____________________________Contract A _______Contract B
Contract price......................$100,000.................$ 50,000
Cost of related goods.............62,000....................54,000
Gross profit (loss) ...............$ 38,000....................($4,000)
You inquired about why Teuvo would have agreed to make a sale at a loss. The company's controller indicated that the company felt the profit on Contract A was sufficient to justify selling at a loss on Contract B, and it viewed the two contracts, together, as sufficiently profitable. "We normally get $85,000 for the goods in Contract A and $60,000 for the goods in Contract B, so we were happy with the transactions, but this is how the customer wanted to structure them."
Required:
1. Should the two contracts be combined for purposes of applying the 5-step revenue recognition model?
2. What amount of revenue should Teuvo associate with each of the contracts?
3. When should revenue be recognized on each of the contracts?
